I was connecting up the trunk release relay exactly like the manual said and when I activated it from the remote it blew a fuse. I tested the wire in the factory release switch and it goes from -0.01v at rest to +0.02 when pressed. Did i do something wrong?

All circuits must be verified with a DMM before hooking anything to them. If you are blowing the fuse, that leads me to believe that you are throwing +12V to ground, meaning you are on the wrong wire. Did you verify that this wire goes to +12V when engaging the trunk release in the vehicle?

The tech sheets are nice time savers, but you should ALWAYS verify the operation of a wire before tapping into it. You can cause some serious damage to the vehicle if you just connect wires without verifying their operation!

k got the trunk release working perfectly. But now i have a problem, i was wiring up the parking light flash but when i tried it the lights did not flash and now the parking light switch does not work. I tested the wire i was using and it when from 0 at rest to 12v when pressed but when i tied the wire from the alarm to the wire behind the switch it broke the switch i guess. I removed the wire from the alarm but still the switch doesnt work but the actual lights do work. Do you have any idea what this could be?? Thanks
